...it refers to works that are possible.
There are many things which our heart 'might find to do', -which we never shall do.
It is well it is in our heart; but if we would be useful, we must not be content with forming schemes in our heart, and talking of them; we must practically carry out “whatsoever our hand find to do.”
One good deed is more worth than a thousand brilliant theories.
Let us not wait for 'large' opportunities....., or for a different kind of work, but, -do just the things we “find to do” day by day.
We have no other time in which to live.....
The past is gone; the future has not arrived; we never shall have any time but time present.
Then do not wait until your experience has 'ripened into maturity' before you attempt to serve God..... Endeavor now to bring some fruit within your 'God-given Capability'.....
Serve God NOW! .......but be careful as to the 'way in which' you perform what you find to do-”do it with your might.”
Do it promptly; do not 'wish away' your life in thinking of what you intend to do to-morrow as if that could 'make up' for the idleness of to-day.....
No man ever served God by doing things tomorrow.
If we honor Christ and are blessed, it is by the things which we do today.
Whatever you do for Christ throw your whole soul into it.
Do not give Christ a little 'slurred labor', done as a matter of course now and then.....
-but when you do serve Him, do it with heart, and soul, and strength!
But where is the might of a Christian?
It is not in himself, for he is perfect weakness.
His might lie in the Lord of Hosts.
Then let us seek HIS' help; let us proceed with Prayer and Faith,
.............& when we have done what our “hand find to do,” let us......... wait upon the Lord for his Blessing. What we do therefore will be .............well done,
& will NOT fail in its Effect (on Life & others around us..........)
(Ecclesiastes 9:10) Whatever comes to your hand to do with all your power, do it because there is no work, or thought, or knowledge, or wisdom in the place of the dead to which you are going.
